Untitled [Manassas #25]

Artist

Sally Mann

Antique- and aged-looking photograph of a dreamy, perhaps nocturnal landscape. In the foreground a massive tree rises up into the hazy night, and trees recede into the distance. White pock marks give the whole scene, sky and land, an ethereal starry look.

Study for the Last Judgement in the Dome of Santa Maria del Fiore, Florence

Artist

Federico Zuccaro

Physical Description

This is a preparatory drawing of a group of putti that form part of the painted decoration of the dome of Florence cathedral. The most striking figures are the putti in the upper corners of the drawing who support an architectural cornice and a pair of putto that appear between them. One of these putti holds a shirt and his companion holds three dice. Myriad other putti are rendered more lightly to give the impression that they are positioned in the background.
